The design of one factor with k levels (k≥3) refers to the research that only involves one experimental factor with k levels (k≥3), and there is no arrangement for other important non-experimental factors. This paper introduces the estimation of sample size and testing power for quantitative data and qualitative data having a binary response variable with the design of one factor with k levels (k≥3).

Key words: statistics, medical, research design, sample size, testing power, parametric estimation
